Winter Sunset - Moose by Robert Bateman

Winter Sunset - Moose by Robert Bateman.

 

"In this painting I have shown a bull moose about to cross a beaver dam in early winter. The pond has not yet frozen. Although the sun has set, there is a glow in the sky which, in this case, shows mostly in the water. Besides portraying a mood of time and place, the interesting challenge for me was to show the textures and colors of the water, ice and snow." - Robert Bateman.
